Timing is crucial when considering plastic surgery. Patients often wonder when is the best time to seek an aesthetic treatment. While we recognize that our patients know the right decision for them, we also know that making a plastic surgery appointment during the winter months offers some significant advantages. Let’s take a look at some of them.
Recovery takes time for plastic surgery.
Depending on the surgical procedure, there may be an extended healing period where swelling and bruising will slowly reside. The winter months offer the perfect opportunity to enjoy a relaxing and comfortable recovery. Choosing to have your surgery at that time also ensures that you will be fully recovered before the summer arrives. If that is not a strong enough motivation, think about the fact that you will be able to enjoy summer activities, events, and fashion without compromising.
Scheduling your surgery
An essential part of deciding on the right time for plastic surgery is considering your schedule. Scheduling surgery during the winter holidays is an ideal time to cut the amount of time you might need to take off of work to recover if you lead a busy life.
Recovering from plastic surgery indoors.
Staying out of the sun is a typical recommendation while recovering from surgery. The radiation and heat from the sun can sometimes lead to increased swelling. Also, scar tissue can sometimes become more tanned in comparison with the surrounding skin, which can make it look more noticeable. Although gray winter days are rarely exciting, this time of the year does present an ideal opportunity to recover without worrying about the added risks of sun exposure.
New year, new you.
2020 has been a challenging year for all. The new year on the horizon presents the perfect opportunity to embrace a fresh start. If you have been considering plastic surgery, it is a great time to book a consultation. We will be happy to address all your questions and concerns.
